The act of measuring goods by the bushel, or the work of finishing or altering cloth to proper shape.
Gerund of 'bushel'; in textile work, it means to repair or alter garments. This specialized meaning comes from a different etymological path than the measurement sense.
In tailoring, busheling is a hidden art—tailors would carefully repair worn fabric by seamlessly integrating patches, making clothes look brand new even after years of wear.
